    Apologies if the answer to the following query is self-evident (noob investor) - today MMI share price heading steadily upwards and then a seller places ~8M shares as a single block at $0.27 (todays volume already ~2M with previous "large" volume days ~1M and a "normal" day ~0.5M). This would seem to be trying to cap any further gains in the share price (at least today)?? And then the block of ~8M is withdrawn?? What is the point of such activity??
